I have a new SBS 2003 install with XP Pro clients (5).
Each of the XP machines takes a good 2 minutes to get
logged in. After typing user name and password, it sits
on 'Loading your personal settings'. Anyone seen
anything like this? They're all Dell machines and fresh
installs. After it does get the desktop, it works fine
and access network resources fine.
